Answer:
PICC lines are appropriate for long-term therapy and can easily be used in the home environment.

Explanation:
The most appropriate type of IV access for Elaine is a PICC line because the practitioner recommended home IV therapy for two weeks. These lines are actually the most appropriate because they can be used in places such as home environment and for long-term therapy.
A PICC line is a long, thin, flexible tube called a catheter. It is used to give you chemotherapy and other medicines. A doctor or nurse puts it into a vein above the bend of your elbow. It can stay in place until your treatment is over. <span>
